[Using Sakai] Question on... Migrating content FROM MOODLE TOSAKAI

[Adam Marshall]

We havent looked at webservices mainly because we're getting the users to move their own material. 

Also we made a decision not to do anything regarding access permissions - we're expecting the users to do this manually on each site. 

One thing we have done is add options to the manage access page (Site Info) to set the site visit permission to .auth or .anon. - ie, make the site available to public or all logged in users. we will also add "all staff" and "all students" access to this page. (This will interact with our LDAP)

John Norman from Cambridge seemed to think that they did something with importing IMS CP into Resources inn Sakai 2.4 - I've askd him to point us to the code.

You're welcome to use any of our code - just let me know.

Hi, Adam. Although we have moved from WebCT 4.1 to Sakai, I think that
we could have similar interests.

We exported the contents from WebCT with a migration tool which linked
them in html pages and after that, we loaded the WebCT files into
Resources with a WebDAV script. We moved the html too, so with the Web
Content tool we can present the public contents to the course's students
in a similar way to their previous WebCT's courses.

Our biggest problem with this approach is that some resources were
public in WebCT and some were private. We would like to set these
properties automatically in the Resources files but we aren't able to do it.

Maybe a web service which modifies the Resources files metadata would be
useful for both of us. I think that actually it doesn't exist nothing
simillar. Am I wrong?

Best regards.

We create a CP in bodington and save all the meta data to the manifest; ideally this metadata would end up being saved in the resource description and meta data fields of the Edit Details page. One solution is to use Melete, but we dont really want to do this.
